Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0956930A2] A cutter shaft 40 provided with a cutter 43 as its lower tip is freely vertically movably disposed in a guide cylinder portion 17a of a cutter holder 17. A horizontal support body 47 is supported in a hollow case portion 17b. A large diameter first steel ball 45 and a small diameter second steel ball 46 are supported in the horizontal support body 47 separated by a suitable distance. The horizontal support body 47 supports the steel balls 45, 46 exposed from a lower end of the horizontal support body 47 but in a manner that prevents the steel balls 45, 46 from falling out of the horizontal support body 47. A cover body 48 is fixed on the upper surface of the horizontal support body 47 to prevent the first and second steel balls 45, 46 from moving in a vertical direction. The side edges of the horizontal support body 47 protrude from guide grooves 50a, 50b formed inside surfaces of the hollow case portion 17b. An adjustment screw screwingly engaged in a lid portion 17c presses downward on the cover body 48. On the other hand, resilient plate springs 54, 55 extending downward from the cover body 48 urge the cover body 48 upward. <IMAGE>
